The circular of the secretary calls at- 

 tention that the board only passed on 

 values of seed of biennial families, and 

 that varieties of the same families un- 

 named are, of course, equally enhanced 

 in value consequent upon the diminished 

 harvests in sight. 



The sub.ject of postal regulations as 

 respects semi-transparent seed packets 

 was discussed and the following state- 

 ment was directed to be issued : 



Conreriiinp his recent interviews in Washing- 

 ton with the Third Assistant Postmaster General, 

 .Mr. Bnrpee. Chairman of the Committee on 

 Postal .\frairs, reported strongly in favor of the 

 seed trade generally comp;ylng with the rulings 

 of the Posi-offlce Department as to using trans- 

 parent paper. 



The Third Assistant Postmaster General and 

 -Mr. Bacon both emphasized tbe fact that It 

 would be a great mistake to further agitate the 

 question .lust now, when Congress Is so opposed 

 to special privileges (and seeds enjoy one-balf 

 the postage rate of other fourth-class matter) 

 and when there is so much discussion as to 

 second-class matter. The Third Assistant Post- 

 master General was most courteous and seemed 

 disposed to lie as liberal as possible In his 

 interpretation of the word "transparent," In per- 

 mitting till' use of any paper that Is not so 

 opaque as to conceal character of contents of 

 sealed packages. Quarts and pounds can be put 

 up In opa(|ue paper bags If only tied (not 

 sealed) or ;n cartons, without sealing. 



This ruling of tbe Department Is In no sense 

 new. as the P. L. & R. under which It is made 

 has <!to-id tor moi-e than twenty years. Prevl- 



AMMONIATED 



LAWN LIME 



Kills Weeds— Mokes Grass Grow 



Applied as a light top dressing to lawns, it kills all flat leaved weeds, such as 

 Dandelion. Daisy. Plantain, Sorrel, Cbickweed. Moss, etc., in 48 hours, and 

 without other fertilizer produces a wonderful, luxuriant, ricli green growth of lawn 

 grasses, which is distinctly noticeable 50 feet away. 



The use of Ammoniated Lawn Lime supersedes hand weeding of lawns, putting 

 greens, etc. It saves the grass from being pulled up and in many caaes ruined. 

 Grasses take a new, vigorous growth, avoiding probable trouble in future.
